Synopsis: The story centers on two car thieves, brothers, who journey to the south of France for new opportunities and wind up in the cross hairs of the local crime boss. Andrew and Garrett Foster (Scott Eastwood and Freddie Thorp) are thieves who specialize in luxury cars, only the most expensive cars. They've been hired to steal a gorgeous Bugatti 1937 valued million euros, so they head to the south of France for the job. But they get caught, and Jacomo Morier (Simon Abkarian), the local crime boss who owns the Bugatti, doesn't take it lightly. In exchange for their lives the two brothers will have to steal a car from Max Klemp (Clemens Schick), Morier's arch-rival, and not any car, Morier wants them to steal Klemp's 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO, his most prized car.

over the family business

in his own unique way.

At age 30, his father handed

him the reins to the empire,

and to celebrate the

event, he gave him a gift.

A 1962 Ferrari 250 gto,

today worth roughly $38 million.

We were gonna steal it from

them here in Marseille.

It's our plan.

You know him?

Klemp.

I know the bastard better

than he knows himself.

He crossed me on an important

real estate deal in Berlin,

which cost me dearly.

He took Torino, Naples, Monaco,

and then he decided to take

something else from me,

something priceless.

Marseille. But

Marseille is mine.

Well, sounds as if you

don't like him very much.

So, you say you're going

to steal that '62 Ferrari

right out of his compound.

That is impossible.

You let us go,

and we can bring you Max klemp's

most prized possession.

Look, it's not just a car, Mr.

Morier.

It's his legacy.

What do you say?

You have one week.

A week? We're gonna

need longer than that.

Drop them back in Marseille.

We've never planned a job

inside a week before.

We're in Marseille. We

can't crew up that fast.

Sh*t. What?

What's that?

I'm gonna ask Steph to marry me.

Now?

Yeah. Really?

That's great. I'm happy for you.

I mean, she deserves

better, but still.

I'm taking the piss, all right?

I want the best

for you, brother.

So you're okay with this?

Of course.

It's just... Here we go.

It's a genuine concern.

You get married. You have a kid.

The whole thing goes tits-up.

And I'm left holding the bag.

We can't do this forever.

But we can't stop in our prime.

I'm sure Stephanie

would agree with me.

What did dad say to us when

he brought us together?

"You missed the first 15 years of being

friends. Don't miss the next 50."

So let's get back on our feet

and do what we do best.

Garrett, after this

job, I'm done.

You're joking.

When were you thinking

of telling me?

Just did.

Where have you been?

Honey, just...

You scared the hell out of me.

Could really get used to this.

I called you all day. You

didn't answer the phone.

Why are you wet?

We had a slight problem.

What kind of problem?

The kind where people

are shot off roofs.

What?

Shot off roofs? I'm fine.

But this is why i don't

want you in on this one.

There's always a risk

involved, Andrew.

That's part of the job.

There's a place for her, Andrew.

Out of the question.

Not with these guys.

Sweet. It's like my own

private telenovela.

You didn't tell her we've only got

one week. This is why you need me.

Plus, we're gonna need a crew if we're

gonna pull off a job like this.

Exactly what I thought.

I got a friend

here in Marseille.

She can help us get

the people we need.

What? Relax.

She's great. She taught me lot.

She's a fisherman.

No, I said "crew," Steph.

I'm not sure a fisherman is

exactly what we're looking for.

That's 'cause i haven't told you what she fishes

for. And how do you know this friend, exactly?

Let's just say that neither of

us are welcome in any casino

this side of Amsterdam.

Yeah, we don't speak French.

Sorry.

Okay. You can pole me.

I don't want...

Then come... hey!

Check your valuables, sir.

This woman is a known thief.

No, I'm okay.

Here she comes.

She's single.

She's a thief.

We're thieves, smart guy.

Devin.!

So good to see you.

So, this is Andrew. Hi.

And this is Garrett. Hello.

You having a little

trouble with the police?

No trouble.

Hey!

Merde! Call me.

Get back here!

Stop! Get back here!

It's not bad.

She's in.

So the bump is important,

but the misdirection of

the target is the key.

And now you can rob

poor tourists together.

Stop.

Get them thinking about one

thing before you bump them.

Like, say, "excuse me, do you

have the time?" No, you don't.

Would another good example

of a misdirect be

to get someone to fall

in love with you,

steal their stuff, and then

leave while they're asleep?

Brazil, Brazil.

Yeah, that would

work really well.

Leon.

Leon.

What did you bring me, you thief?

C'est un croissant.

Your favorite.

First, you have to

prove to my friends

how good you are at

blowing things up.

Whoa!

Open the safe without

harming the pastries,

and they're yours.

All right, get out of the way.

Should we...

I promise, he's good. I just got

him a little excited. It was...

He's in.

He's in? Yup. We don't

have time to be picky.

Not this time. No.

I wanna focus on the job.

You sure about that? Yes.

Yes.

Anyway, I think we

should be more concerned

about how we're gonna work

this from the inside.

I wanna do that.

I'm the last one

anyone would expect.

Steph...

What?

Can I talk to you for a sec?

What's the matter with you?

How many times are we gonna

have the same fight?

I'm just trying

to keep you safe.

So let me get this straight.

You've risked my life in the

past, but now you won't.

Yeah. Is that it?

Yes, that's right. Why?

Because we're together now?

I haven't changed. I have.

You know i can handle it.

Andrew, shutting me out

and trying to protect me like one

of those cars, it won't work.

I know you're afraid to lose me,

but this is the life we chose.

Don't you see that?

So, tell me, what

happened in Brazil?

It doesn't matter.

I'd like to know.

No. No, please. Allow me.

Andrew.

You see, we were

finishing a job.

Don't. '61 California spider.

It was beautiful.

We had the car, and the night we

negotiate the deal with the buyers,

Gabriela lets little

Garrett hit it.

The next morning, Gabriela's

gone, and so is the Ferrari.

Oof! Screwed two times.

Not quite.

Actually, while I

was recovering,

Andrew saw the car leave at dawn. He could have

chased it. I know I would have. The road was blocked.

Which is why you should have done

the riviera run. What? Yeah.

What, did you just make that up?

Yup.

It's catchy.

What's that? Riviera run?

Okay.

So you're holding the throttle while

mashing the brake at the same time.

It's not as easy as it sounds, okay? Too

much pressure, and the engine stalls.

Too little, and you lose speed.

And then, when you let it go...

Riviera run.

That doesn't actually work.

Yes, it does. You didn't try it.

You weren't there.

Stop.

So that's it?

You don't get involved with

girls on jobs anymore?

I think you should

dance with me.

Yeah? Only if you give

me my phone back first.

It's not gonna ring.

They're good.

Really good.

Meh.

You have friends that

can drive like that?

So what's your plan?

Don't need one.

Got to be able to adapt.

Just start low. Yeah,

I know what to do.

Garrett, let me help you with this.

These people... No, thanks.

Fair, but firm. That's

what I always do.

I don't steal from people

who don't have it coming.

Fine. Be my guest.

Who wants bouillabaisse?

I'm buying.

We're prepared to pay you each 1,000

Euros for your driving services.

All right, then.

You know the way out.

Look, you guys need to counter.

That's how this works.

Otherwise, I don't know

where your heads are, so...
